Crowning the Year 2015: For the Chief Musician. A song. A Psalm.

You crown the year with your bounty. Your carts overflow with abundance. The wilderness grasslands overflow. The hills are clothed with gladness. The pastures are covered with flocks. The valleys also are clothed with grain. They shout for joy! They also sing.

Psalm 65:11-13

Santos, son of CHE Trainer Marcos Gonzales had grown up in church but had not wholly committed his life to serving the Lord. He was trained with TOT1 last September. It was during the training that the Holy Spirit spoke to him calling Santos to commit his life to Jesus and serve in His Kingdom through Community Health Evangelism. Then he asked to be baptized. They went to Lake Atitlan to have a service and go down to the waters for a public testimony. 36 were baptized, Santos included, plus more local CHE fruit.

In the same way like Santos, more and much fruit is been presented humbly to the Lord Jesus through Global CHE Enterprises. But the local church as result of the CHE teachings have mobilized the community and all, believers and non believers put their hands together and accomplished a clean up crusade even making the illegal dump disappear.

Wholistic transformation and development is a long and ongoing process but the community of Chipotrer keeps in it. CHE Trainers Marcos Gonzales and Jose Hernandez were originally trained there as volunteer CHEs in the late 1980s.

It was a privilege for Dr. Hugo Sr. to conduct the first TOT1 to the Gnobe people on the Bocas Islands of Panama with Beth Harrison and Bobby & Shirlene Woods. In the meanwhile A.C. Roger Pavon stayed with Hugo Jr. in Nicaragua to complete the Water Well drilling project (sponsored by Drops of Grace) for the community of San Andres Boaco which was successfully completed to God’s Glory and the people need supplied.

Each family upon completing the 200 hours minimum of community service is providing labor and our partner 1Mission continues to provide the funding for those construction materials not found locally but only in the city. The Rios family enriches the testimonies of the previous built homes/families about Provision and Transformation for their lives.

House #10 for the Mondragon family who have lived under this type of shelter is the next community project.

Last week of September both Teams of Trainers took a trip to Guatemala city for a 2 day retreat. The Mam and Quiche languages spoken simultaneously inside the bus and the van made the trip special. Our Praises to the Lord for His Provision through Calvary Church, Muscatine, IA.

Gomez Family: After a couple of years that we had not been together due to studies, work, ministry, God gave us the privilege to enjoy, for few days, each one on the picture: Gabriel, Hugo Jr, Mario and Heydi, Christa, Hugo Sr. & Miriam.
